Chapter 415 The Legends of Vile Witch
Sofie then moved to the other matter, which was obviously the matter Curtis had discussed with her. She told Jacob about all the disappearances of the people all over the city and also the city lord being involved in them.
"… just to be safe, I think we should leave for No. 492. It\'s also more convenient for I can gather materials there much faster." Sofie stated gravely.
Jacob\'s eyes shimmered with astonishment, "The City Lord was also one of the people who got abducted? What were her species?"
Sofie frowned at this peculiar question, "The Zodiac Sorceress Dark Mistress belonged to the Shadow Elf Clan, which is one of the strongest clans present in the Epic Plains, and those guys are known for their terrifying assassination skills.
"That\'s also my point. Even someone like her vanished without a trace, so we should leave before whoever is doing this starts to target the guild as well." Sofie said matter-of-factly.
\'Shit!\' Jacob couldn\'t help but curse in his mind since he never expected of all the people he hunted; he hunted the city lord herself.
Furthermore, he looked at Sofie with a strange glint as the steak that she enjoyed so much was exactly the Zodiac Sorceress Dark Mistress\'s!
He had already consumed those people\'s hearts yesterday, and he started to feel lethargic, which was a sign that his body had grown stronger, so today, he treated himself to this feast made with every person he hunted in the last three days.
But it wasn\'t the most important point, \'If that woman were the city lord, then no wonder she has so many good things in her space ring. Furthermore, then it also means that the letter I found in her ring was also legit, and that\'s why she was meeting those two giants that night!\'
Jacob had naturally found many good things in Zodiac Sorceress Dark Mistress\'s space ring, and one peculiar thing that caught his eye was a letter that only had one single sentence.
\'We know the location of the Vile Witch\'s true layer! Meet us in this location XXX! PS: A.T.L.A.S!\'
This was the only thing written in that letter. Although Jacob didn\'t know what this A.T.L.A.S was but he knew that it had something to do with those two giants.
Nevertheless, he didn\'t put many thoughts into this since it could be just some random search party who were after the fabled Vile Witch inheritance like many people who come here.
Yet, now Sofie told him that the shadow elf was the city lord, which completely changed this situation.
Because someone like her won\'t just move by some random treasure hunter so it has to be something to do with A.T.L.A.S, which made her approach those two giants alone.
Jacob\'s interest was finally piqued, and he questioned, "Tell me about this Vile Witch? Why do so many people want to search for her inheritance?"
Sofie was again perplexed by this irrelevant question, yet she had no choice but to reply, "There are many legends about the Vile Witch in epic plains. But only two of them held some truth. The first is, before the three hegemonies were in full control, the Vile Witch was the strongest being and owned the most Plain Shares!
"But she was extremely vicious. She used people as her test subjects, and the deaths on her hand were in hundreds of thousands or even millions. But no one was strong enough to do anything about it.
"Even the Dark Beings were no match for her and never dared to provoke her. Until the First Alliance Chairman appeared. According to the records, he was sent here by higher plains to put an end to Vile Witch\'s cruel reign.
"And he did exactly that. He was extremely powerful, known as the Flaming Halberd. But the Vile Witch wasn\'t weak either, as she retaliated in full. Their fight lasted for a full day, and they destroyed anything that came in their path.
"In the end, the Vile Witch perished, but Flaming Halberd also didn\'t come out of that fight unharmed. One of his hands was lost, and the Vile Witch seemed to have left some curse on him, which stopped any medicine from working on him.
"That heroic alliance chairman was only able to live two years before dying in agony." Sofie\'s face was filled with respect as she spoke of the Flaming Halberd and fear for Vile Witch.
Jacob was also surprised as this was his first time hearing about this, and he noticed many points that he was completely unaware of, but he remained silent and let Sofie finish.
"While the second legend is, in her final fight with the Flaming Halberd, the Vile Witch somehow managed to escape, but she was simply too wounded and on the verge of death.
"She escaped to this place and took her final breaths here. Furthermore, her dying place was also where her lab was located, where she does her revolting experiments and has all the treasures she collected in her lifetime by being a tyrant. So, people called it Vile Witch\'s Layer, and this region was named Vile Witch Valley.
"That\'s why many come here to search for her treasures here, but to this day, not a single one of them has ever succeeded. The Alliance also never made any comment on this while they took over this region.
"Until a person found a strange key of her layer and a parchment written in blood by the Vile Witch herself. It was at that time everyone took it seriously, and the Vile Witch Valley teemed with the treasure hunter.
"Yet mysteriously, that person, the key, and the parchment vanished, never seen again or heard about again, and no one has ever discovered the Vile Witch\'s Layer to this day or any more clues."
Sofie\'s eyes shimmered with a hint of excitement, "But it is speculated that if someone is ever able to find the Vile Witch Layer, they will be the richest person in the entire epic plains!"
